HIGHLIGHT Downtown Atlanta urban tree planting – One Million Trees initiative In 2020, the One Million Trees Initiative — a collaboration of ten metro Atlanta cities and ten local non-profits was launched to plant and conserve 1,000,000 trees in ten years. The initiative is seeking to address local climate eects and environmental stresses from urban growth, as well as improve the cities’ sustainability and beer protect the health and wellbeing of people living and working in metro Atlanta (GA, USA). As part of our corporate volunteering work, employees from three of our Atlanta based wood sites volunteered with the local non-profit Trees Atlanta which is part of the initiative. Our employees from the Conley Plant, Conley Technical Center and Alpharea R&D site volunteered to plant trees at South Bend Park located close to the Conley facility in February 2022. Their eorts with Trees Atlanta contributed to the wider One Million Trees Initiative and the sites are looking forward to continue volunteering with Trees Atlanta and the One Million Trees Initiative on a regular basis.
